    Haven't posted here in years, but just wanted to share than Petey and Rice are still pretty useless. 

    useless except for unconditional love and filling your life with joy (I hope). ❤️

    Was just being sarcastic. They are much older now though, so they are as lazy as couch pillows nowadays. Plus my allergies have gotten much worse so that limits my wrestling with them. I now have kids, one too young to enjoy them, but the other would probably have a fall apart when the time comes. They are 11 and still pretty healthy and going strong though all things considered.

    We’re getting ready to put our Twinkie to rest it’s been a tough time for her these last two weeks she’s got no control of her back legs and today she’s been having diarrhea since early this morning! She’s close to 15 years old and needs to rest my daughter has decided to have the service done here at home she wants her body cremated to keep her ashes, I don’t have anything else I can say we’ve been getting ready for this decision it’s the correct thing to do I can’t have my Twinkie suffering! Be well everyone hug your pooches 🐕 😔

    I'm so sorry, Jose. I had to do this for one of my cats last year. Even though in your heart you know you are doing the right thing, it doesn't make it any easier. From the way you talk about your animals, I know Twinkie has had an amazing life and was loved very much.

    Thanks GG that means a lot to me! Twinkie was there for us when we put down my Sparkels she was our comforter companion and specially when I was sick and after my surgery she was my comfort blanket so I’m a mess right now but I know I want her to just rest ohh man I’m so sad

    Oh no!
    Poor Twinkie. I'm so sorry to hear this Jose.
    Take comfort that you gave Twinkie a great life. My Willow just turned 15. Someone needs to develop a serum that allows dogs to live longer...a lot longer.
    You guys are in my thoughts.

    I knew you were being sarcastic. I can talk shit about our dogs, too, but we love them to death.

    Sending so much love to you and your family @josevolution. It’s never easy whether you have to make the decision or it’s made for you. Your little Twinkie will finally be free of pain again. I’ve given all my fur babies a hug in Twinkie’s honour.  💔💛💔💛💔

    We took her last night to the emergency vet to put to rest we had appointment for this morning for home service but she was suffering and that was the last thing we wanted for her! Now she’s pain free resting in doggie heaven playing with her best friends 🥲🥲 will love you and never forget you Twinkie

    So sorry, Jose 😢. You did the right thing. I remember bringing one of my cats in the middle of the night for the same reason. I couldn’t have her suffer a minute longer. We are here for you.

    Thanks folks I’m coming to terms with it my daughter is really really upset but we all agreed no more pain or discomfort for her was the correct course of action it’s never easy saying goodbye to loved family members no matter human or animals!

    So sorry Jose 🥺 That photo brought tears to my eyes. Reminded me of my own pups I’ve lost and also my 16 yr old Percy who’s slowed down so much this year. Sounds like Twinkie was so loved and you gave her a great life. Run free sweet girl 🌈🐾🤍
